Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.
1. A radio transmission apparatus comprising: a receiving unit configured to receive an index indicating a transmission format including a transport block size (TB size) for user data; a coding unit configured to code the user data and control information using the transmission format, the control information being one or both of an acknowledgement/negative-acknowledgement (ACK/NACK) and a channel quality indicator (CQI); and a transmitting unit configured to transmit the coded user data together with the coded control information, wherein said coding unit adjusts a code rate of the user data for the TB size of the transmission format indicated by the received index such that a code rate of the user data transmitted together with the control information is different from a code rate of the user data transmitted without the control information, the user data code rate adjustment being dependent on whether the user data is transmitted together with the CQI, with the ACK/NACK, or with both of the CQI and ACK/NACK.
2. The radio transmission apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein a transmission parameter for the user data is set in the transmission format.
3. The radio transmission apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein transmission parameters of TB size and a modulation scheme are included in the transmission format.
4. The radio transmission apparatus according to claim 1 , further comprising a storing unit configured to store a relationship between the index and the transmission format, wherein said coding unit uses the transmission format obtained by referring to the index and the relationship.
5. The radio transmission apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the TB size for the user data is not varied depending on the control information.
6. The radio transmission apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein said coding unit performs a rate matching for the user data by adjusting the code rate.
7. The radio transmission apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein a number of symbols for the control information varies according to a number of symbols for the user data.
8. A radio transmission method comprising: receiving an index indicating a transmission format including a transport block size (TB size) for user data; coding the user data and control information using the transmission format, the control information being one or both of an acknowledgement/negative-acknowledgement (ACK/NACK) and a channel quality indicator (CQI); and transmitting the coded user data together with the coded control information, wherein a code rate of the user data for the TB size of the transmission format indicated by the received index is adjusted such that a code rate of the user data transmitted together with the control information is different from a code rate of the user data transmitted without the control information, user data code rate adjustment being dependent on whether the user data is transmitted together with the CQI, with the ACK/NACK, or with both of the CQI and ACK/NACK.
